How to relieve pain in late-stage prostate cancer

Prostate cancer is a common disease among men. The incidence of this disease is relatively high. Once the patient is sick, it is very painful. Therefore, we should pay more attention to our physical health in daily life. If we find any problems, we should seek medical treatment in time. We should conduct effective examinations and treatments under the guidance of doctors. It is best to find a professional hospital for treatment. So how to prevent prostate cancer? How to relieve the pain in the late stage clinically?

Prostate cancer can cause many pain symptoms. The pain will be aggravated after the cancer spreads and metastases. Bone metastasis is a more serious pain condition. Phosphate drugs can be used to treat bone metastasis, which can relieve osteolysis and the pain of bone metastasis. In terms of treatment, Chinese medicine can be taken. Chinese medicine such as ginsenoside Rh2 (Hu Ming Su) can inhibit the formation of new blood vessels and lymphatic vessels in tumors, prevent recurrence and metastasis, control the rate of disease progression, and improve the quality of life.

How to relieve the pain of late-stage prostate cancer? The treatment is still mainly based on analgesics. Analgesics such as morphine, tramadol, and pethidine are commonly used analgesics with good effects. To control the deterioration of the disease, radiotherapy is still the main treatment for prostate cancer. Biological treatment is also widely used in the treatment of late-stage prostate cancer.

The main preventive measures for prostate cancer are as follows:

1. The currently generally accepted effective method for screening is to use a rectal examination plus serum PSA concentration measurement. Serum PSA levels are tested on male citizens aged 40 to 45 years old and followed up once a year.

2. Avoiding risk factors is difficult to do because there are many clear risk factors. Heredity and age are unavoidable, but potential environmental risk factors such as high-fat diet, cadmium, herbicides and other unidentified factors may be avoided.

3. Chemoprevention According to the drug's interference method, chemoprevention can be divided into the following main categories, such as tumorigenesis inhibitors, anti-tumor growth drugs, and tumor progression inhibitors. Since the occurrence and development of prostate cancer is a long process, we can use drugs to chemoprevent or inhibit the occurrence and development of prostate cancer. For example, finasteride can inhibit the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, which has a strong effect on the prostate. Therefore, it may inhibit the growth-promoting effect of testosterone on prostate cancer cells. This effect is still under clinical research observation and needs to be confirmed. Other drugs such as retinal have the effects of promoting cell differentiation and anti-tumor progression. They are also under clinical research and may become potential chemoprevention drugs.

The above is what we introduced to you today about some preventive measures for prostate cancer and knowledge on relieving pain in the late stage. Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor. In the early stages of the disease, the patient's symptoms are not obvious, which can easily lead to patients ignoring the disease. By the time the disease develops further and the symptoms become obvious, when they seek medical treatment, it has already reached the late stage, making effective treatment difficult.
